I am sorry, but on account of recent interventions, the time limit for the remaining Back Benchers will have to be reduced to five minutes each, because otherwise the Front Benchers will not have adequate time to wind up. That is the consequence of interventions that some people might think are superfluous, but others will think are essential.]]>2018-03-15T16:25:00+00:00Business of the House | Commons debateshttps://www.theyworkforyou.com/debates/?id=2018-03-15a.997.2&p=10040#g1017.0

Each Member must take responsibility for his or her decision to declare. I would not want it to be thought that there is huge ambiguity about this. It may be that it takes time for some to be fully conversant with the required procedure, although that is not a problem that will afflict the hon. Gentleman as he approaches his 39th year of consecutive service in the House of Commons, but I hope people will appreciate how to go about this matter. It is certainly very important.]]>2018-03-15T10:33:00+00:00Business of the House | Commons debateshttps://www.theyworkforyou.com/debates/?id=2018-03-15a.997.2&p=10040#g1005.5
